Trying to delete all messages at once. If you can do that, how?

Hello. Welcome to Android Central! What messaging app are you using? Hangouts? Textra?

SMS Backup & Restore (free at the Play Store) has a "delete messages" button that deletes all your texts. (I'd back them all up first and put the backup file on a computer, just in case you suddenly realize that there was a text in there that you didn't really want to delete. Retrieving deleted texts could involve things like hiring someone who works for the NSA.
